Cuprabob Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Didn't see that one coming, especially with the fuel prices dropping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser647 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Great news! The AA bloke, Mr King explained that having the money spent in the shops, rather than in fuel duty is a better idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP27 Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Really? Where? Scotland? No - at your local Morrisons !! 6p off a litre of fuel when you spend £40 in store !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonC Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Ah, not sure if we have one near us. Ho hum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Fuel has dropped by almost 10p/l here, still not enough but it helps. Most of the supermarkets are doing these offers, I think Sainsburys is currently top as they let you use up to 3 5p vouchers in the same transaction, meaning you can get 15p/l discount. However, it does mean using supermarket fuel, and after my recent (expensive) repair bills, I'll not be using anything other than brand name fuel again.

garcon magnifique Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 When you have time, pay a visit to your local fuel depot. You may be surprised which trucks ate filling up from exactly the same tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuprabob Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Really? Where? Scotland? Over the last couple of weeks prices have dropped around 10p per litre. Normal UL is around £1.27 here at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and my Uncle used to say the same (he worked at a fuel depot), but it would seem that (down here at least) that is no longer the case. Either that or all the local supermarkets fuel tanks are contaminated, our local fuel injection specialist reckons that 90% of the cars he gets in with running problems are regularly filled with supermarket fuel.

NewNiceMrMe Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Makes for another nice quick tabloid headline for him doesn't it? Right now they're sat thinking of the next policy change they can instigate that'll deflect attention from the economy for a while. I reckon they have a big long list of them, probably about a years worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
